Guest Interaction:
I like you to feel comfortable in the space, as if it was your own. I provide thorough directions and lots of communication. Throughout your stay, I am only ever a message or phone call away. I'm always happy to provide recommendations, advice, or anything else that may come up during your stay. If we are not available, we have assistant available.

Other Things to Note:
1 small dog allowed and must be approved by host prior to booking. There additional pet fee of $75 (per dog). $150 will be collected prior to check-in and half will be refunded after checkout so long as all pet rules are followed. If you do bring your dog we will be adding a sofa cover to the couch.

Security Cameras installed outside (these are the only cameras) - we use this to monitor guest count and for security purposes.

Trash - guest agrees to take cans to curb on designated city pick up days

Low Flow Toilets - do not flush anything other than small amounts of toilet paper

The home is regularly treated with non-toxic pest repellent. Still, this property is located in a historic neighborhood in the desert. Bugs are a part of life here in the southwest. While we make every effort to stay on top of pest control and keep the apartments spotless for guests, we cannot completely control nature and therefore you may see the occasional bug. Please be aware of this and make sure you're ok with the possibility before booking.

The Neighborhood:
We love the historic feel and the charm that Old Town delivers. It's always enjoyable to slow down and spend time strolling through the square and the numerous shops and restaurants available. We feel perfectly safe walking around Old Town both day and night, just sticking to the immediate blocks around the plaza, and around Rio Grande Blvd. Going from Central towards Downtown does have some isolated stretches so it is recommended to use common safety sense as you would in any big city.

Distance to:
Airport: 9 miles
Balloon Fiesta Part: 12 miles (we recommend park-n-ride)
Hotel Albuquerque: 4min walk
UNM: 3.5 miles
Old Town: 2 min walk
Fairgrounds: 8miles
Convention Center: 2 miles

Location is perfect for walking to Old town and surrounding restaurants. Walk score of 84 out of 100. This location is Very Walkable so most errands can be accomplished on foot.

Bike score of 87 (very bikeable, flat as a pancake, good bike lanes). There is a bike rental shop within walking distance as well.

Uber, Lyft and Taxi's are always available.

There is a bus system, check the city website for details.

Perfect location
If you're looking for a stay with a New Mexico vibe and a great location, this is it. We walked to Old Town several times. The Breaking Bad Museum is very close. Since our stay was during Christmas, we walked to the BioPark to see the River of Lights. The location is a typical adobe structure on a residential side street so there is very little traffic or noise.

Highly recommend this property
My stay at this NM adobe left me thoroughly impressed as I was met with a range of amenities and features that contributed to a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The presence of a Kangen water cooler was a pleasant surprise. The convenience of having a big refrigerator allowed me to store all the groceries I needed for the duration of my stay. Two patios added outdoor options for relaxation, and the yard and inside of the house were exceptionally clean, making us feel right at home. The double garage was a standout perk. It provided secure parking and extra storage space. It is clear that the host is prepared to ensure their guests have a comfortable and convenient experience while enjoying the ambiance of the charm of Old Albuquerque.

We were just passing threw and needed a house to stay in because we had an ice chest full of food that wouldn’t have worked staying in a motel. Beds were comfortable and the owner didn’t use a bunch of smelly fragrances on the sheets, towels or cleaning surfaces. I find a lot of vrbo’s do and won’t accommodate. Thanks for a pleasant stay!

PERFECT ALBUQUERQUE LOCATION!
This house was perfect for my vacation in Albuquerque. It is located just on the edge of Olde Towne so I could walk over there every day for dining, shopping, or visiting local attractions. The house is on a quiet, walkable street with no through traffic so it is quiet day and night. There is a garage to park your car, a fence and gate that keeps the property secure, and even though I traveled alone, I felt perfectly safe going out day or night and drinking my coffee every morning in the yard. The house was clean and well prepared to accommodate visitors. I would definitely stay here next time I'm in Albuquerque which is actually a very nice, small city to visit. There is lots to do, no traffic to speak of (I'm from NYC so no traffic always works for me), and the Rio Grande was charging during my visit. Bonus: the BioPark is just a mile or so down the road from this property so visits to the Zoo and river were easy and fun. Pack your bags and take a trip to Albuquerque! You won't be sorry

Great House!
The house was great! My best friend and I visited for our birthday weekend. It was plenty of space to be comfortable, and close to a lot of things! If it was warmer, we might have spent more time outside! One note - if you’re a light sleeper, or spend more time at the house - there are some neighbor dogs that are a little barky. But that’s definitely not the property’s fault! It was a great stay!
